About this Episode

Hey all, I'm Bill, I love to talk about video games. I've been playing games since my mother used to take me to visit my grandmother at the bar she worked at (I know) and there was a Donkey Kong game there. From minute one I was hooked. I talk about all types of games, from retro classics to brand new hotness. I'm happy you decided to come by,Each week I take a deep dive into my favorite stories about Nintendo, from the latest indie release to rumors about Smash. If you're looking for Nintendo news look no farther. I try to wrap up the news three times a week in a show that I try to keep under 30 minutes.

Konami Is Set To Reveal Two New Games For Nintendo Switch At E3 2018 - Nintendo Life — The two mysterious titles are listed on Konami's official page on the E3 2018 website, with one stated to be an 'action/adventure' and the other a 'compilation'. With no more details available at the moment, we're all now left to wonder what Konami could be planning. Could we be seeing a compilation of classic hits from the firm's past? Switch has become a retro powerhouse since launch, after all. A Bomberman anthology perhaps.
One of them is called Super Bomberman R - Max which is a little confusing.

Nintendo Switch Craft - Blog - Capcom at E32018 — Capcom has announced its plans for E3 this year. I'm looking forward to watching the streams for Monster Hunder World and Megaman 11. I really want to know more about Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate. What are you looking forward to?

Pokémon CEO Says 2019 Switch RPG Will Be Something Longtime Fans Have Waited For - Siliconera — He started out with some talk on Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Let’s Go, Eevee!:
“The reason we can release a new Pokémon game at this timing is because development started when the Switch launched.”
“The process and tempo of catching Pokémon Let’s Go is completely different. You can swing the Joy-Con with a single hand to toss the Poké Ball, so it has a much different feel to it.”
“In two-player the other player will get to help catch Pokémon.”
“We’re thinking about adding new Pokémon. Considering that it is a remake of Pokémon Yellow, we plan to add new elements such as Pokémon we’ll see for the first time to go with the new looks and play style.”
He then shared more on the upcoming Switch Pokémon RPG coming in 2019:
“The new title coming out in the second half of 2019 will be a completely different game [from Pokémon Let’s Go]. It is not an entry game, but a game that we want longtime fans of the Pokémon series to look forward to.”
“The game will give a good understanding of what an evolved Pokémon game looks like after it has continued to succeed the traditions of Game Freak.”
“We want to make Pokémon fans say ‘this is what I’ve been waiting for’ by delivering a brand-new product packed with gameplay elements and plenty of new Pokémon to encounter.”

Thanks for the review! — cmjdm reviewed the show on Apple Podcasts Canada and gave 5 stars. "Most switch and Nintendo podcasts are made by the younger crowd but this dude has a more adult style. I can actually relax and listen to this whereas the rest are too hype."
